Big up

Why do you say this? I'm not trying to be condescending, not at all. But how could they be not important? Why does this surprises you? I have 275 trees and while I loose money on them rather than making, I cannot imaging myself without them.

@@kimon114 excuse me sir, how are you losing money on your trees? 275 trees is quite a lot no?

@@murn3229 no they are not. You need at least 2000 to make a living.

@@kimon114 I call bs on that

@@ZPUTSAM yup...people here in Greece can make a living and maybe above average with at least 300-500 trees if they treat them with care and understand their nutritional needs. Based on the variety that I'm growing an olive tree will yield a good harvest every 2 years because they need to "relax" for 1 year but I'm not sure if that's for every variety

And Charisma

Yeah. If you make a good living, you develop that passion one way or another.

Well, thats not really true that everyone regardless of what has an olive grove or land, but its actually pretty close, they have family member with olive tree land or friends, and they buy olive oil from people they trust who make it themselves

How many liters/kilos of oil can one expect to extract from a 100 trees?

@@tpop3723 Many factors. We have 150 trees, and all are very young (oldest 50 ones are 15 years old). We also don't groom them professionally to produce consistently. On a good year, our 100 most productive roots will give about 7 oil bins, 17 litres each, so roughly 120 litres. Worth to mention here that olives are biennial, meaning they alternate between one productive year and a poor year.

Thanks for the feedback much appreciated!

@@JohnYannoulas My relatives live in Lamia and they have 2 olive groves...They are starting out this year because 2 people of their family died and they had to go back on all the work..I can say that the oil that we used to get was delicious and 100% genuine....not like the one that is sold in super markets....if I didnt know better I would have thought that it could even be tampered with....at least we know the difference !!!!!!!!!!!!!

There are many of them and most looks a little creepy.

Olive trees are eternal, people are fleeting...

One of the oldest in Greece is a named tree called Peisistratos' Olive, estimated to be 2.500 yrs old. It's so big a lot of people pass by it not realizing it's an olive.

If trees could talk

I have seen olive trees in Puglia, south east of Italy said to have been planted by greek colonists, way before the Romans, it was more like a circle of small trees where the inside had disappeared over the centuries.

why is relevant where are you from respect olive oil?

@@Quinto547 Dont be coy. I have no connection to olive oil production since I'm scandi. This is just like one pig farmer showing another some respect.

@@MrKh4Ot1k I total saw that to. I thought I was going crazy

A friend's father told me a story of how, when he was a boy, his family was staying in a country house with an olive tree right outside his bedroom window. He tried eating the olives right off the tree and they made him sick. He's ninety-six now and he still can't stand the taste of olives. I did the math and this must have been in 1937 or '38 in those magical summers just before the start of World War 2.

Sigma grindset

She really didn't expect a no, she asked with the olive already in her mouth

Which half? Top or bottom? I'm 1/4 Barcelonan; my right leg and part of the thigh come from Barcelona.

That scene made me lol. She asked then put it in her mouth in the next second

Then her face after was great....like.."bet you won't do that shit again"

She was thrown off when she said "that's the olive oil" which is kind of untrue as olive oil needs to be extracted first, which removes the very bitter compounds that are in the olives. She said it's good but trust me, it's very bitter.

Yeah dmitra is quite a beauty. She has nice fair skin.

It's actually quite unpleasant. It's needs time to mellow enough to be palatable. If your preference is for extremely pungent and peppery oil, it might have some value but for the vast majority of consumers it's not a great experience.

@@raskov75 If an olive oil has that level of quality, you can just pour a little bit in a piece of bread with a little bit of salt and eat it as it is.

@@TheofilosMouratidis I'm not sure what you mean. Do you mean the oil in the video? The one that made her cough? She didn't seem to enjoy that as do many of my customers that eat high polyphenol oils for the first time. Freshness matters but right out of the olive, a good oil will be unpalatable. I have access to on avg 8 different oils twice a year; the northern hemisphere in the fall/winter and southern hemisphere in late spring/ summer. While there is a market for very intense early harvest oils, the vast majority of people who do what you say end up coughing and asking for water. That's why I miss the Greek oils from 10+ yrs ago. They were always buttery and smooth, perfect for bread dipping. But since the market has obsessed about polyphenols, these Greek oils have been harvested earlier and earlier making them much less distinctive from their Italian and Spanish cousins. Sad. On the positive side, there has been a lot research showing the these peppery oils do better at 'high heat' cooking than previously thought.

@@raskov75 I agree that fresh olive oil is an acquired taste. The early harvest of Greek olives has other reasons such as the labor shortage because people prefer to work in the tourism industry and there are a lot less immigrant workers than the past, so the ones who work the fields have to start collecting olives earlier in order to finish before all the olives fall on the ground. Another reason is the price a producer can sell olive oil is connected with it's acidity, not it's aroma or taste, and if the olive stays long on the tree it gains acidity so the price per litre falls considerably: for example, this year a litre of extra virgin olive oil can be sold around 3,20€ per litre while high acidity oil can be sold for as little as 0,50€

@@geokon3 finally someone talked about the work shortages it's CRAZY the summer that past there where farmers looking for GREEKS to go Ti the olives.....if you are not greek trust me NO GREEK PERSON works at the olives it's always Albanians who come for the olives and then leave or pakistani people but 0 greeks lol and in 2021 summer there where Greeks working good money at the trees

Claudia would be out of words if the videos were 40+ mins... 10-15 minutes is perfect

Spicy olive oil is full of antioxidants

Try Palestinian one

Italy is the biggest buyer of Greek olive oil (and other Mediterranean countries) they mix it within italian oil and bottle it in Italy. If its 20% (or 30%) and bottled in Italy its regarded as Italian olive oil...

@@RealOrbit-Australia that's so true... i remember an old video where some1 related to olive oil trading said that olive oil from Italy can be up to 40% imported from Greece...but of course since they can sell it in higher price bcs of better marketing they benefit from buying low from Greece,because Greeks lack on promoting their product.

@@dimarg00 not really Greek olive oil is more expensive but alot less. Italy buys from everywhere, Greece, Spain, Cyprus, Turkey, Tunisia etc they are definitely the biggest producers and exporters though

This world is rapidly passing away and I hope that you repent and take time to change before all out disaster occurs! Belief in messiah alone is not enough to grant you salvation - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36) if you believed in Messiah you would be following His commands as best as you could. If you are not a follower of Messiah I would highly recommend becoming one. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life - Revelation 3:20. Contemplate how the Roman Empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13 over the course of 1260+ years. Revelation 17 confirms that the beast is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years going back to Babylon and before, C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate once you start a relationship with God. Can't get a response from God? Fasting can help increase your perception and prayer can help initiate events. God will ignore you if your prayer does not align with His purpose (James 4:3) or if you are approaching Him when "unclean" (Isaiah 1:15, Isaiah 59:2, Micah 3:4). Stop eating food sacrificed to idols (McDonald's, Wendy's etc) stop glorifying yourself on social media or making other images of yourself (Second Commandment), stop gossiping about other people, stop watching obscene content etc. Have a blessed day!

That's so touching!

@@karozans That's correct. I bet very few if not everyone, can't tell the difference between various products of the same variety. Most people judge subjectively and tend to value more their actual preference than the product itself. That's why bad products get good reviews too.

You have a very poor bottling industry and the "made in Italy" brand is widespread, of course they do. They don't buy Portuguese olive oil because we actually have a proper bottling industry.
